I was happy to hear that Glenn Kirschner—former federal prosecutor and legal analyst—recognizes the centrality of mass protest to drive the change we need. “We are the ones who are going to save us: We the people. Because it was never going to be a prosecutor, a judge or a politician who could save us. Listen, if the Democrats could have saved us, they would have long ago,” he said. “So it's up to us—and it's up to us to come out in ever increasing numbers, to have our voices heard, to stand up.”
While Glenn and I discussed a growing number of court decisions that have ruled against Donald Trump and his regime, I particularly found hope in his picture of the future. Yes, Homeland Security’s Kristi Noem, Attorney General Pam Bondi and her henchman in the Department of Justice, he said, “are destroying the rule of law and the legitimacy of DOJ. And they seem to be doing it gleefully because they think there will never be any accountability that visits them.”
But “at the end of the day, that's where I believe they're wrong, because our memories are long, and we are going to fight like hell to restore the integrity of the rule of law and our institutions of government once we have an opportunity to do so.”
I hope you have a chance to listen to the insights of this legal expert and proud American—I’m sharing the recording specifically for paid subscribers—and I hope you find our conversation valuable.
